The Russia national korfball team is managed by the Russian Korfball Federation (RKF), representing Russia in korfball international competitions.

In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, on 1 March 2022, the International Korfball Federation announced that the Russian Korfball Federation would not be invited until further notice to any international korfball competition.[2] This implied effectively that no Russian athletes shall take part in any international korfball event.[2] Furthermore, the Russian Korfball Federation shall not be eligible to bid for the hosting of any IKF event until further notice, and no IKF events were planned in Russia.[2]
